Why should I get a water tank installed?
The primary reason for using water tanks in Adelaide is water conservation. Adelaide’s Mediterranean climate, characterised by hot, dry summers and mild winters, necessitates prudent water use. By capturing and storing rainwater, residents can reduce their dependence on mains water. This is not only environmentally responsible but also cost-effective, as it can significantly decrease water bills.
Your water tank water can be used for
- Gardening and Irrigation: Watering lawns, gardens, and plants.
- Toilet Flushing: Connecting to your home’s plumbing system for toilet flushing.
- Laundry: Using for washing clothes, particularly in cold wash cycles.
- Outdoor Cleaning: For tasks like washing cars, cleaning driveways, or rinsing outdoor furniture.
- Filling Ponds or Water Features: Ideal for maintaining ponds, fountains, or other water features.
- Pool Top-Up: Adding water to swimming pools or spas as needed.
- Firefighting Reserves: In rural areas, for firefighting purposes during bushfire seasons.
The importance of water tanks extends beyond just water savings. They play a pivotal role in stormwater management. By capturing rainwater, these tanks reduce runoff, which can carry pollutants into waterways. This lessens the environmental impact on local ecosystems and helps maintain the natural water cycle.
Water Tanks & Savings
In terms of savings, Adelaide residents can expect substantial reductions in their water bills by using rainwater tanks. Studies show that a well-sized and properly installed water tank can save up to 40% of a household’s potable water use annually. This translates to significant savings, especially given Adelaide’s variable rainfall patterns and water rates.
